Infusion

Infusion is the process of combining a metal or gem with the essence of a powerful creature. Ender Ingots, Netherite Ingots, Sculk Gems, and Nightmare Pearls all need to be infused with their respective essence before they can be used to craft equipment.

Infusion Cores

Infusion Cores are mediums that hold the power of great entities. They can be used to infuse refined items with power, giving them a glow. An Infusion Core can be crafted with 4 Obsidian in the corners, 4 Diamonds on the sides, and Glass in the middle.

Infusion Cores are reusable! Infusing a refined item with a filled Infusion Core will return an empty core.

Process

Each Infusion needs 3 cores and one item of power. An Ender Ingot needs to be infused with the Essence of Dragon. The dragon's item of power is Dragon's Breath, so crafting 3 empty cores with a Dragon's Breath will yield 3 cores infused with the Essence of Dragon. Then, one Infusion Core (Essence of Dragon) can be combined with one Ender Ingot to craft an Ender Ingot (Infused).
